Are hits unique? Do they exclude the owner?

The 60 hits on my comic are just me compulsively refreshing to look for comments, right?

I thought I saw mention that it's unique hits… Confirm! someone…!! If it's NOT unique hits then I'll keep refreshing my page forever so as to fool myself into thinking thousands are enjoying my comic :D

No, it's just hits.
We only record uniques for 5 days and then delete them, they're only used for determining rank, and only used by the system.

We do that to save server time, CPU cycles, and storage . :)

That makes sense, I think… So if I click in my own page, it only counts as one hit for 5 days…? I guess I thought it was unique hits per day (to reflect your stats daily hit-graph…

The stats graph are all the hits. So if you read back through ten pages, you get ten hits.


Only the site comic rankings (when you browse comics) use unique hit/visit stats.

Ahhh thanks UB!

Hi everyone. How do you access your comics hits? Is there something on your profile area to get that information? Perhaps this is a feature that is no longer available on the Duck.

Hi Rick!

As far as I remember, when you edit your comic there's a button from “stats” and there you can see the daily views of your comic.

Hope this is what you're searching for :)

Fantastic, Avart! The Stats under the Edit for each comic title is just what I was looking for. Thank you.
